Anyone who appears on television regularly wears makeup. They'd all look like ghosts if they didn't (this is regardless of race btw). The kind of lighting involved with even the standard press conference washes people out entirely. Why Trump chooses a bronzer in the ocher range instead of a lighter peach that would be more in keeping with his natural tone is a mystery for the ages. It's not that he wears makeup but that he's using the wrong color of makeup.

The President wears television makeup when he appears on TV. If he didn't wear makeup, the bright, harsh TV lights would make him appear washed out and sick. All politicians and everyone else who appears on TV regularly wear makeup when on camera.

I can assure you that EVERY U.S. President, since 1960, wears makeup when he's on camera.

"Name another president that used makeup - I can't think of any". Okay. JFK wore makeup on TV during his first televised debate with Richard Nixon in 1960. His makeup is credited as being the reason that JFK won his first debate with Nixon - at least for the people who watched it on TV. JFK's makeup made him look healthy, young, and robust. Nixon didn't wear makeup, and his "5 o-clock shadow" was apparent, and made him look somewhat like a thug on camera.

Or anyone else that goes on camera or on stage. So that list includes ALL Presidents back to atleast JFK.

My husband briefly appeared on a major network program on new developments in a technical field. Those in charge of filming insisted that he have make up applied to face and to bald head. The idea that only "a sissy" wears make up for television is ludicrous.

Obviously, he does wear makeup. Some would say to make him look like has narcissistic self sees himself. Most politicians wear makeup when on TV, after Nixon "looked like he was embalmed" when he debated Kenedy.

I can name more than one man, like every man whoever appeared on film, television, or stage. But theirs is better matched to their skin time and looks natural, not orange. Rump needs a better make up artist.

Trump's hair looks somewhat "orange" when he's on TV because his hair was naturally dark brown & dark brown hair has a lot of red/orange undertones. His hair is now almost completely gray, but it still has those "orange" undertones. TV lights pick up the undertones & his hair appears orange on TV.
